Psalms 2

1 Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain?

1 列国为何骚动不安？ 万民为何枉费心机？

2 The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers gather together, against the LORD and against His Anointed One:

2 世上的君王一同行动， 官长聚集商议， 要抵挡耶和华和祂所膏立的王。

3 “Let us break Their chains and cast away Their cords.”

3 他们说： “让我们挣断他们的锁链， 摆脱他们的捆索！”

4 The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord taunts them.

4 坐在天上宝座上的主必笑他们， 祂必嘲笑他们。

5 Then He rebukes them in His anger, and terrifies them in His fury:

5 那时，祂必怒斥他们， 发烈怒惊吓他们。

6 “I have installed My King on Zion, upon My holy mountain.”

6 祂说： “在我的锡安圣山上， 我已立了我的君王。”

7 I will proclaim the decree spoken to Me by the LORD: “You are My Son; today I have become Your Father.

7 那位君王说： “我要宣告耶和华的旨意， 祂对我说，‘你是我的儿子， 我今日成为你父亲。

8 Ask Me, and I will make the nations Your inheritance, the ends of the earth Your possession.

8 你向我祈求，我必把列国赐给你作产业， 让天下都归你所有。

9 You will break them with an iron scepter; You will shatter them like pottery.”

9 你要用铁杖击垮他们， 像打碎陶器般打碎他们。’”

10 Therefore be wise, O kings; be admonished, O judges of the earth.

10 所以君王啊，要慎思明辨！ 世上的统治者啊，要接受劝诫！

11 Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.

11 要怀着敬畏事奉耶和华， 要喜乐也要战战兢兢。

12 Kiss the Son, lest He be angry and you perish in your rebellion, when His wrath ignites in an instant. Blessed are all who take refuge in Him.

12 要降服在祂儿子面前， 免得祂发怒， 你们便在途中灭亡， 因为祂的怒气将临。 投靠祂的人有福了！
